Why does HN allow Musk’s bots to flag these articles? HN is out of its league here.

Intelligence doesn’t relate to a visceral feeling, like charisma or power or status or wealth. It has nothing to do with social standing or living your best life. It’s just a metric, like blood pressure or megahertz. If anything it has dork

Even containers aren’t really secure. You need a VM boundary.

If there is no corresponding tax cut, there will be a recession or depression. Even if there is a tax cut, there is no guarantee that money won’t be used for other things (to buy assets, save, or pay down debt).

Did the authors also write their own operating system to avoid the “ludicrous complexity” of the Linux kernel? This project just looks like NIH syndrome and an unwillingness to read documentation.

"Sustainability" is bullshit. Holidays don't come and go willy-nilly. We're talking a few updates a year across the entire globe. That said, Google teams are notoriously lazy, and it wouldn't surprise me if the Cale

Downvotes for suggesting biodegradable tires. What a site of wankers we have here.

It’s a good first step, but half of the crates in crates.io have at least 40 transitive dependencies. Some have hundreds or thousands. A big effort.

Or one could just mandate that tires contain only biodegradable ingredients. That seems an inevitable step since wheel isn't going away no matter what the level of public transportation is. Some public transit, like busses and some sub

You could do it, but I would prefer guarantees on a per-call chain basis using a sanitizer. It should be quite easy to write.

by 7e 2y ago
It should be possible to write a sanitizer which verifies no panic behavior on a call graph, just as you can to verify no blocking, or no races.

Due to physics, ICE vehicles are also hugely inefficient. That doesn't matter. All that matters is the cost of the fuel stock.

Java is 3-5x slower than compiled languages, with horrible and uncontrollable tail latencies due to garbage collection. The bytecode thrashes the icache and the language is overly abstracted and too verbose. You have to install a huge runti

Human breeding impulses are infinite but there is only so much space. That is why prices keep going up. The earth is getting full.

With the switch away from cash, it looked like some workers were losing tips at PoS terminals. So they added aggressive tip suggestions. Employees now have to pay taxes on their non-cash tips, and now employers realize they can pay their wo

The problem is you can't figure out where to pick it; it's lost in a sea of superstitious noise. Even if you could find this fruit easily, "a food that cures cancer when eaten" does not exist. That would surface in epide
